Comparative Study of Two Insulinlike Proteases in Cryptosporidium parvum
16 Apr 2021
Abstract excerpt
Cryptosporidiumparvum is a common protozoan pathogen responsible for moderate-to-severe diarrhea in humans and animals. The small genome of C. parvum has 22 genes encoding insulinlike proteases (INS) with diverse sequences, suggesting that members of the protein family may have different biological functions in the life cycle. In this study, two members of the INS family, CpINS-4 and CpINS-6 with the Zn2+-binding...
